AS Spring has sprung, Nelson Golf Club’s ladies played their first match of the season in the Mail on Sunday competition.
A team of five travelled to Bradley Hall, Halifax, a course new to most of the locals, and they lost 3.5-1.5 as home advantage told.
The team was Jane McGregor, Kate Dennis, Marion Wilkinson, Christine Fletcher and Wendy Collins.
There is less than a month to go to the start of the season, with the ladies hoping that gives enough time for the course to enjoy a drying out period.
